    Description

    Vintage .800 Silver Roman Coliseum Ornate Italian Souvenir Collectors Spoon
    You are bidding on an antique collectible Vintage .800 Silver Roman Coliseum Ornate Italian Souvenir Collectors Spoon .   This spoon was my Grandmother's but it does have some darkened patina to it, and it is hallmarked on the inside top of the spoon bowl with the .800 mark, and is also hallmarked with the Italian Silver mark along the top of the spoon bowl opposite the 800 mark.  It is in excellent condition and was a display spoon only (not used for food).   This spoon is in very good condition given its age and tarnish typical of 800 silver and would be a great addition to any souvenir collection.   The spoon is extremely ornate with the coliseum at the top, a relief lion below that and the handle of the spoon has ornate cut-out details with the country's flower.   The spoon measures approximately 4 3/4" long and weighs 13.36 grams.   This spoon and many others presently listed were from my mother's and/ or grandmother's collection beginning in the early 1930's.   Take a look as I do offer combined shipping discounts for multiple purchases.
    This Spoon will ship through USPS with tracking in Standard mail.   Please let me know when it arrives.   Feedback is always returned.   Thank you.

    When I use the word
    vintage
    in my listings that means
    REALLY OLD
    , like more than 1/2 a century (+ 50 yrs
    ) unless otherwise noted
    . You can expect the item to have a deeper patina due to age, scratches & wear showing that it was worn, and if there is any damage that I am aware of I will identify it by description and photos.
    Please note
    the size and dimensions listed above, as close-up photography often makes items appear bigger than they actually are. I also recycle packaging materials whenever they are clean and will protect your item.

    RETURN POLICY
    FINALLY, my
    30 day
    return policy is ONLY for items that were for some bizarre reason described inaccurately, or were damaged in the shipping process which was beyond my control. The buyer needs to provide proof that the item was damaged or is not as described with photographs illustrating this.   If a return is requested, contact with me needs to be made within the 30 days of receipt of item that you are requesting a return, otherwise my return policy is null and void!
    IMPORTANT _  READ!
    I do not offer returns for buyer's remorse!
    Returns are buyers expense.  If the item returned is not damaged and fits the description in the listing, I consider this a form of
    THEFT
    by the buyer as I am not a retail store and lose money from people who have second thoughts.   Especially when offered the opportunity for questions, more photos if requested, or other reasonable workable arrangements.   If this is the case, I will block the buyer from ever making further purchases from me in the future.   Think hard before considering returning an item for these reasons.   Once the item is received the same way it arrived in your mailbox (ie. no odors, all tags attached if originally present, no animal hair, etc...), a full refund will be issued
    MINUS
    a flat restocking/ relisting fee of .00
